Crotonia (literary society)
Appearance
Crotonia was the first literary society to exist at Yale University. Little is known about it. It was already defunct before 1766.
The name is also used by a contemporary student literary society at Yale, dedicated to the spoken word. Students read from both their work and others' (poetry and prose) and hear from literary-minded guests. Guests of Crotonia have included J. D. McClatchy and Joseph Roach.
